How We Print
Aluminium sheets are degreased and primed, then UV flatbed-printed in full colour at 1440 dpi with a white ink base layer for colour accuracy on metallic substrates. UV inks cure instantly under the printer's UV lamp, eliminating drying time. After printing, sheets are cut, drilled per spec, and standoff hardware assembled. Every sign is edge-finished to remove sharp burrs.
FAQs
How do aluminium signs compare to acrylic signs for outdoor use?
Aluminium is better than acrylic outdoors. Acrylic yellows and becomes brittle after 2â3 years of direct sun exposure in Bangalore. Aluminium (powder-coated) maintains its finish for 5â7 years outdoors. However, acrylic has a more premium look indoors and is preferred for corporate reception areas and retail displays.
Can you print on stainless steel or copper instead of aluminium?
We print on stainless steel sheets (1 mm) for premium applications like hotel room numbers and luxury retail name plates. Copper and brass printing is done via vinyl application rather than direct UV printing. Ask for a quote on premium metal substrates.
Do you supply the mounting hardware for aluminium signs?
Yes. We supply 4-hole countersunk screw mounts, standoff bush mounts (4 bushes per sign), and double-sided foam tape for flush wall mounting. Specify your preferred mounting method when ordering. Standoff mounts give a premium floating-sign appearance.
